We should track this carefully. Any Korean around?If they are selling this product using GPL without sending the changes to us is a clear violation of GPL.My lack of Korean (and the really poor Google translation) dont let me understand more about it.

compatible with windows binary driver, so we are making windows kernel API be

compatible.

저 도 windows 호환을 중요하게 생각하지만, 어떻게 출시 3달 남기고 그렇게 밀어 붙일 수 있

는지, 참 황당하네요. 개발 초기부터 windwos 호환을 생각지도 않고 만들다가 3달 남기고 덕

지덕지 붙이고 있는 상황입니다. 그것도 react OS project에 많이 참조하고 있고요. (게다가

react OS는 GPL입니다)I think windows compatiblity is important. But how can it be possible in 3 months. it's absurd. In the beginning of development, windows compatiblity is not needed, but 3 months before beta release, patching is being continued. in addition to, Reactos OS project is reference(moreover reactos OS is GPLed)

제가 생각하는 문제는 핵심 멤버들이 OS에 대한 철학이 없다는데 있습니다.the matter what I think is core member does not have philosophy of OS.

Proffessor Park has good business mind and technology mind. But managers who execute and manage don't have it.

기구요.Moreover main coders is twenties aged Master of Science researchers as military service.researchers who came in urgently quits in a few months.Who finishes military service of 1 year and 6months, moved to other companys.

Going by the translation, it seems that the company is indeed violating GPL regulations from not just ROS, but other projects as well. Frankly, if somebody hopes to achieve Windows display driver compatibility in a matter of months, I think the project can be safely ignored. Why anybody would want to accept drivers from both Linux and Windows instead of just one of the OSes is beyond me.

They if they are using GPL code as he states(BSD,Linux,and ReactOS) they have to send their feedbacks to us. They can make profit but they have to hang the GPL code otherwise they are violating GPL.Is there a TMAx GPL repository?

The point of that article and similar articles is there are too many issues about Tmax window. Tmax window looks like Windows XP, Tmax Proword, Procel, and Propoint have same interface with OpenOffice.org, and Tmax Promail looks like Thunderbird. Furthermore, the screenshots of the Tmax window and others are dirty files. They are modified with Adobe photoshop CS4.

We don't know Tmax window really exists or not before July 7.But I and my people guess from the screenshots, there's no new OS. Tmax window is just a fake.So I think it wil be better to watch at the all of happening, but don't do anything before Jluy 7. We don't have any clue.

From the translation and screenshots, it seem they're trying to make an OS based on combination Darwin and Wine engine. Basically, toward a Linux based system but capable running Windows binaries. They did mentioned Linux' drivers and their own windowing manager. Also mentioned ReactOS being used as reference to deal with windows binary compatibility that was haunted them. And the developer has leave the project.

Based from the screenshot, it has very stable GUI engine and using FAT like file-system. It's remind me MiniGUI which is a cross-platform Win32 alike GUI system.

Thank you.

Thanks for the Info, we will be stay tunned.It´s pretty easy to recognize ReactOS bugs,or ReactOS odd behaviors, and our Devs would recognize even the way the Memory is managed , so we will be stay tunned for 7th July. If this is violating GPL then Linux+ReactOS+BSD(or the GPL projects involved) would take care about it,thanks to their Foundations(I hope).

From what i see, they are using our code as a reference. Nothing in GPL can stop it from doing so. As their base is obviously UNIX, there is a little use of ROS code copypasta. They want to be able to load windows applications? Its more of WINE problem. I also seriously doubt they are gonna be able to use Windows binary drivers sooner than LUK, that is still somewhat far from that...

The video in korean. If anyone could give a summary about the guy's speech in the video, it may give us a little insight about the OS architecture. From the article and the video, it seem there was much has been going on since they also developed their own office suite, web browser and other applications that sufficient for desktop OS and server.

With that kind of progress, they could easily make money by selling it to motherboard makers and distribute the OS in the Bios ROM.
